Marine Research is a professional and academic journal. Each manuscript will be single-blind reviewed by at least two specialties or scholars, and the suggested manuscript will be also re-reviewed by the editorial board.

    1. The editorial board of Marine Research is a regular organization. Editorial board members are invited and assigned by editor-in-chief.
    2. Two reviewers are recommended by editor-in-chief or members of editorial board for reviewing each manuscript.
    3. The review comments are divided into four levels: (A) accept, (B) minor changes, (C) major changes and re-review, and (D) reject. Basic decisions making from two reviewers’ comments are shown in the following table:
